Hi Afesto,
Nice to meet you.
Rather than deleting your site, have you thought about changing your Privacy Settings?
If you make your site private, only yourself and those you invite will be able to view.
https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/
This support document will help explain how to delete your site, if you choose:
Please know that once you choose to delete your site, the address/url will become unavailable for you or anyone else to use in the near future, if at all.
The user account itself cannot be deleted. It is set up that way to help prevent someone else from gaining access to your site and pretending to be you.
If you want to get rid of your account details, follow this link and remove all personal information from your account.

Change your email address to a throwaway address and change the password to something random that you won’t remember to prevent you from gaining access to it in the future. Or, you can just block all emails and keep the account dormant in case you may want to use it again in the future.
